The filter change indicator (see fig.

26)is designed for the changing cycle of the Active Air Clean and Active HEPA filters.

If you use an Air Clean exhaust filter instead, lighting of the filter change indicator and reset button can be disregarded as the exhaust filter should simply be replaced whenever a new box of Miele filter bags is opened. The indicator lights turn off when the reset button is pressed.
